What is the ROPA Method?

The ROPA Method (Reception of Oocytes from Partner), also called reciprocal IVF, is a fertility treatment for female couples who both want a role in the pregnancy. One of you is the genetic mother: she provides the eggs. The other is the gestational mother: she carries the pregnancy.

In practice, it's IVF (in vitro fertilization) with the roles split between the two of you.

  • The genetic mother goes through ovarian stimulation and egg retrieval
  • We fertilize the eggs with donor sperm using ICSI
  • We transfer the embryo to the gestational mother's uterus

How does the process work?

Amapola rosa con cápsulas

01

Consultation and donor selection

We review both of your medical histories and help you choose a donor from European Sperm Bank's profiles.

02

Cycle syncing

The genetic mother goes through ovarian stimulation while the gestational mother prepares her endometrium with estrogen and progesterone.

03

Retrieval and fertilization

Egg retrieval takes 15 to 20 minutes under sedation. We then fertilize the eggs with ICSI, and the embryos grow in our lab for 5 days.

04

Transfer and pregnancy test:

We transfer the best embryo to the gestational carrier's uterus. It is practically painless and requires no anesthesia. You will have a blood test 10 to 12 days later.

Frequently asked questions

We answer the most common questions about IVF, timelines, and results, so you can make decisions with clear information.

How much does the ROPA Method cost in Mexico?

From $154,000 MXN (approx. $8,370 USD). That includes the full IVF cycle with ICSI and up to 3 frozen embryo transfers. Medication is extra.

Is the ROPA Method legal in Mexico?

Yes. To make sure you're both legally recognized as mothers, it's a good idea to get legal advice, because the requirements vary by state.

Do we have to be married to do reciprocal IVF?

It depends on the state. Some require marriage or a civil union for legal recognition. We'll point you in the right direction for your situation.

Who will the baby look like?

Your baby will have the genes of the partner who provided the egg and of the donor. The gestational mother also influences how those genes are expressed during pregnancy.

What if we don't get pregnant on the first try?

f you have frozen embryos left, you can do another transfer without repeating stimulation. If not, we'll talk about starting a new cycle.
